Ummm. Frog legs.....

Eating from the front would be deadly.

The first picture is amazing!It is huge!!!Do you know the name of that documentary on Discovery?

 

[gripen]

holy **** that thing is huge!

 

[Psychobunny]

That is one very large mantis!!

I dont like the way that guy is holding her though!!

 

[patrickfraser]

I believe the mantis looks extra huge due to the fact it's being held by a tubby 2-3 year old with tiny hands. It may be big, but not as big as we are led to believe by the deceptive photo.

I second that. We need to identify the source. Where did you find the still?

Those arms are pretty big for a 2 or 3 year old... You sure your eyes aren't deceptive? LOL.

Yeah that's a pretty huge mantis unless it's a little kid like Patrick guessed.
